Vocal Coaching

I’ve been a vocal coach and voice teacher since 2010. As coach I’ve worked for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Emmanuel Music, and MIT, and been a guest coach for the NEC Summer Opera Studio.

I teach voice lessons for adults at all levels, and I’ve successfully prepared students for choir auditions, undergraduate and graduate admissions, and professional auditions.

Eileen is a kind of voice scientist and magician in one. Her expert guidance and unparalleled musicianship are helping me to navigate vocal challenges, strengthen vocal technique, and nurture my authentic vocal expression.

My students have successfully auditioned for:

Cantata Singers • Longy School of Music • Lowell House Opera • NATS National Finals • Oxford University College Chapel Choir • Penn State • University of Texas at Austin

Eileen is incredibly skilled at identifying technical problems and communicating a solution. Simply the BEST!

What’s the difference between a voice teacher and a vocal coach?

Broadly speaking, a voice teacher focuses on the technique of singing: breathing, posture, resonance, and registration; whereas a vocal coach focuses on diction, expression, ensemble, and interpretation. Voice teachers and vocal coaches support each other’s work, and their work often overlaps.

I’m equally comfortable in both roles, and I tailor my approach to each student’s needs.

I feel incredible gratitude and appreciation for your expertise and meticulous guidance. I have grown so much through our coachings.
